Janaih Rattray, 10, was at the hospital with her older sister Delesia when she left her toy doll named Ryan on the seat of Delesia's parked car.

Two officers were called to the parking lot of Russells Hall Hospital in Dudley, West Midlands after a concerned passer-by thought a baby had been left alone in the vehicle. Thinking the doll was a real baby, the officers confirmed with nurses that they should take action.

After smashing their way into the car, they discovered that the baby was in fact a little girl's doll wrapped in a blanket. The Rattray family was stunned when they returned to their car and found the back window broken with a note to call the police. Delesia, 20, said:

"The doll does look a bit real, like a baby a few months old, but if you look at the hands, which weren't inside the blanket, and feet you can tell it isn't. I can understand why they broke into the car if they really thought there was a baby inside."
